Wei Laisong then asked Xing Baohua where he was, saying he would come over to talk to him in person later.
About half an hour later, Wei Laisong arrived at Xing Baohua's villa. He hadn't noticed anything special about the villa before, but he only realized its grandeur once he stepped inside.
Much of it is empty and lacks decoration.
The most luxurious mansion in central Shandong has a glamorous exterior but a terrible interior.
"You're such a busy person, why do you keep coming here to see me without anyone telling you to?" Xing Baohua complained.
"I wanted to talk to you about National Day and the Olympics. These are all important matters!" Wei Laisong said seriously. Seeing that Xing Baohua hadn't poured him any tea, he picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself some.
"I can't argue with you, but here's one thing! Don't try to get money from me. I'm trying to find some money myself."
“They’re only asking you for small change. Not many other businesses in the city have spare cash, only you are so wealthy. What they consider big money is just small change to you.”
"Stop, the door's over there. Go straight out and close the door behind you," Xing Baohua said, pointing to the door.
"It's fine if we don't invite celebrities for National Day. Two athletes from our city will be competing in the Seoul Olympics to win glory for the country. If they win medals, the city should at least show some appreciation."
Xing Baohua curled his lip and said, "You're asking me for such a small amount of money? Wei Shu, it's true I have a bank, but you can't just withdraw cash from me! Is the petrochemical plant short of money? Or the steel mill? Or the aluminum plant?"
"It has nothing to do with those things. The buildings in the city are quite old, while the staff housing here is all newly built. What I mean is, if someone wins an award, they should be rewarded with a house. The city will pay for it; it just means it will take up one of your staff's quotas."
"Oh, okay, it's settled then. As long as you win a medal, I'll sponsor two mobile phones. Are you sure there are only two? What kind of training are you doing?" Xing Baohua asked again, afraid that Wei Laisong was trying to fool him.
“From our city sports team to the provincial sports team, and then recommended by the sports team to the national team, one is a 100-meter racer, and the other is a substitute in the national Olympic team,” Wei Laisong said with considerable pride.
Xing Baohua didn't speak, blinked, and stroked his chin as if thinking about something. Then he tossed Wei Laisong a cigarette, lit it himself, and said, "Spread the word that if you get a top-three finish in the 100-meter race, regardless of whether it's gold, silver, or bronze, the car factory will reward you with a Pegasus supercar, the city will reward you with an apartment, and I'll also reward you with a cell phone, a computer, a stereo system, and so on."
"Isn't this a bit too much?"
"I believe that a generous reward will surely attract brave men; it's like buying a horse with a thousand pieces of gold."
"Isn't that a bit unfair to that national Olympic team player?" Wei Laisong said.
"So, you go to the media and report it extensively, saying that Shandong Province is giving big rewards to its players in order to support domestic athletes to achieve good results. If the national Olympic team does well, even if it's only third place, all the players will be rewarded with a Pegasus sports car."
“A year’s output wouldn’t even be enough for them to make a mess of things. Are you sure you want to do this? How much money will you lose?” Wei Laisong finally realized what was going on and said with great dissatisfaction.
Xing Baohua spread his hands and said, "As long as we get good results, we can afford this amount of money. I'd sell my aircraft carrier for scrap metal to raise money for their cars. If Tianma isn't enough, I'll use Ferraris, I'll use Lamborghinis. I don't believe we can't ignite their fighting spirit."
"Don't act impulsively about this. I'll go back and think about it carefully." With that, Wei Laisong stood up and walked out. Only after leaving the house did he call Xing Baohua a madman.
Xing Baohua watched Wei Laisong leave with a smile. If Wei Laisong really put in the effort to promote this generous investment, Xing Baohua would have made a profit.
It not only brings fame to the car manufacturer, but also serves as a form of soft advertising.
As for whether they can get the cards... let's not even talk about it. No one else is as openly scheming as the Koreans.
If Xing Baohua remembers correctly, we won five gold medals at this year's Olympics.
Too much talk leads to tears, too much talk leads to hatred.
The advertising department had made an investment plan beforehand, and Xing Baohua knew about it. Of course, the water plant had also rushed to sponsor the project.
They were competing with that Lippo brand that sells orange juice for sponsorship.
They didn't even consider that they could compete with the wealthy and powerful Xing Baohua. Moreover, Xing Baohua's advertising strategy was to open bottle caps and draw prizes such as mobile phones, pagers, and learning machines.
This is the kind of deal that's actually paid out. It might be a small amount, but once it's paid out, the media will follow up and report on it.
Each bottle cap has a laser anti-counterfeiting number, so it's not afraid of being faked.
These days, there aren't many organizations that can afford laser anti-counterfeiting technology.
Money!
Xing Baohua was figuring out where to scam people.
Suddenly remembering something, I quickly called Wei Laisong, guessing that he had just left home not long ago.
"You called me as soon as I stepped out the door. What's the emergency?" Wei Laisong said.
"Is your confidante, Lu Yafei, in Shandong?" Xing Baohua asked.
"He's not here! You got three businesses expanding over there after just a few words from him. What happened?"
"I have a small project to introduce, and I'd like her to come over and discuss it when she has some free time," Xing Baohua said.
“Okay.” Wei Laisong hung up the phone and then called Lu Yafei: “Xing Baohua has a project. Come back and talk to him when you have time.”
“How big of a project is it? I heard he has a project worth tens of billions. Could it be this? I’m going to book a plane ticket and head back now.”
Wei Laisong said, "I don't think so. Don't worry, I just feel like this kid has been acting strangely lately."
Lu Yafei chuckled and said, "No matter how mysterious he is, he's still the richest man. A little bit of skin showing between his fingers is enough for us to live on for a lifetime. I'll book the plane tickets right now. Get clean and wait for me."
After hearing the last sentence, Wei Laisong hung up the phone and smiled helplessly.
Hou Qian arrived at the laboratory quickly, and after registering, she received her work card, access card, and communication equipment.
